Who is signed up on Chatroulette?
Four months after its inception in November 2009, Chatroulette quickly gained over a million and a half unique visitors daily. Word-of-mouth spread and in no time, even celebrities were flocking to the site to try it out. Users have shared screenshots of their Chatroulette experiences with these celebrities such as Justin Bieber, Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Alba, and many more. Others also gained fame by employing their own gimmicks such as playing improv piano for their partners or wearing cosplay to entertain the stranger they're paired with.
The majority of users are in their early 20s and 30s who are just seeking fun and entertainment in random chats. Most users are males and some of them are blatantly showing their private parts on cam. Because of this, Chatroullete has gained a negative reputation in the online world.
